PPP Industries Ltd, established in 1962, is a leading supplier of agricultural equipment in New Zealand.

The systems made by PPP are commissioned NZ-wide by dedicated installers, with sales support from dealers from Kaitaia to Invercargill.

PPP offers a wide range of general spare parts for most feed systems, off the shelf and at competitive prices.

PPP systems are available to handle powders or pellets; addition rates are from 30g to 140g/kg of feed, and powders are kept moving by in-built vibrators PPP press screw separators remove solids from liquids or slurry type waste.
